A Call from Gandhi's Land
Dr. Kilari Anand Paul briefs President Pranab Mukherjee on the global refugee crisis — and together they plan a worldwide Christmas message of peace, equality, and justice.
The Briefing
Dr. Kilari Anand Paul briefed President Mukherjee, saying that there are unnecessary wars all over the globe that have created 65 million refugees — including millions of orphans and widows.
It is time for President Mukherjee, as a father of India today, to take the lead from Gandhi's land and to join Dr. Paul — considered a modern-day Gandhi — who has tirelessly worked for over three decades to stop wars and promote peace all over the world.
A Global Christmas Message
Christmas Day · Peace for All Faiths
President Mukherjee then called Major Gaurav Arya and asked him to plan and stream a global Christmas message — from the President and Dr. Paul together — calling on world leaders and the entire world to observe Christmas Day to promote peace, equality, and justice for all people of all faiths.
"Peace, equality, and justice for all people of all faiths."
State Visit Confirmed
A Visit to the Charity City
President Mukherjee also confirmed a visit to Dr. Paul's Charity City, where he will speak to the world directly from the orphanage and Peace Center — a powerful image of India's highest office standing alongside the most vulnerable.

Join Dr. Paul and a worldwide family of peacemakers carrying this message forward.
